I really love how this turned out. I love how I did the shading and the motion blur. I think this is my best Half-Life 2 fan art, yet. But I want to know what your thoughts are. Sorry that I made the dropship too dark in color. I couldn't get it quite like in the game, but I tried my best. And I know I made the river go the wrong way, but it's too late, now. This is my second fan art of Half-Life 2: Episode Two and my third fan art of Half-Life 2, overall. Like all my previous hand-drawn artwork I submitted, I drew and colored this for days in school.

This one is based off of the scene from Episode Two, where Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance continue their journey in their old muscle car and arrive at a river, where they're ambushed by a strider, but Alyx and her father's homebuilt robot, DOG, saves Gordon and Alyx, by leaping onto the strider and ripping it apart, killing it, despite the strider being much larger than DOG. Afterwards, some Resistance members, who DOG was with, appear on a hill and tell Gordon and Alyx how to get to the White Forest base. So, after DOG drags a crashed dropship out of their way, Gordon and Alyx get back in their car and race DOG to the White Forest base.

I actually beat DOG there on the first try! And I earned the achievement, "Pedal to the Metal", which the title of my fan art, here, is based off of.
